Features:
Ematic Lubrication System: Provides proper lubrication with less oil consumption by directing lubrication to the sliding faces of the bar and chain links, reducing bar oil consumption by up to 50%.
STIHL ElastoStart: The ElastoStart starter handle reduces the effort needed when pulling the starter cord by smoothing out sudden peak forces during cranking.
IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor: Automatically adjusts the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted, maintaining the engines correct RPM by using air from the clean side of the air filter.
STIHL Quickstop®: A chain stopping system designed to reduce injury risk in kickback situations. The chain can be stopped within fractions of a second by the operators hand or by inertia.
Bumper Spikes: Prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.
Adjustable Automatic Oiler: Allows the user to adjust the lubricant flow for different bar lengths and cutting conditions.
Decompression Valve: Temporarily reduces compression in the combustion chamber for easier starting, lowering the effort required to pull the starter rope.
Pre-Separation Air Filtration System: Boosts engine filter efficiency by doubling the time between air filter cleanings, reducing the frequency of maintenance.
Side-Access Chain Tensioner: Provides convenient access for chain adjustment using a bar wrench.
Master Control Lever: An easy-to-use single lever that operates the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch.
Anti-Vibration System: Reduces vibration levels, minimizing operator fatigue and providing a more comfortable working experience.
Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers: Allows caps to be removed or tightened without tools.
Throttle Trigger Lock: Provides safety by requiring the lock to be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
Reduced-Emission Engine TechnologyCaring for Nature: Identifies products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions that meet EPA and/or CARB standards.
